Frontiers of multidirectionality

The Republic of Belarus traditionally adheres to unified approaches to the development of relations with all foreign partners, while concentrating its foreign policy efforts on the most important and promising vectors, which include the countries of the so-called far arc, including those in the African and African regions, with many of which the Belarusian side seeks to expand and strengthen cooperation. The Belarusian foreign policy is aimed at developing relations with the countries of the far arc in two main directions: first, intensifying political and economic interaction with traditional partners; second, establishing a dialogue, actively entering and establishing a foothold in the markets of the states that have a significant potential for mutually beneficial cooperation. This focus is explained by the fact that diversification of trade and deepening of economic cooperation with the countries of the above regions of the planet is an important prerequisite for growth of the export-oriented Belarusian economy. Over the past few years, the Republic of Belarus has done a lot in this respect. This study describes how this mutually beneficial cooperation is developing.
